Hmmm..how can he legally do this if he hasn’t been awarded custody or guardianship?? Something must have gone down in that closed hearing. I just don’t see how he can change the name if he hasn’t received custody and if he has then why aren’t they talking about it? I guess it’s the gag order.

he is the bio-father - his names goes on the BC now that it has been determined. Custody and guardianship would have nothing to do with his name going on the BC.

how can he legally do this if he hasn’t been awarded custody or guardianship?? maybe it's because the pat case and the custody case are two different legal animals?

I guess in the Bahamas, paternity and custody are two totally different things.
